[SOLVED] BSOD on W7 upgrade to W10 & in driver verifier, no dumps. FIX: FEW drivers (and devices) removed; TPKD was the last one which blocked the upgrade.

Let's try this:

dism /online /cleanup-image /spsuperseded

Let me know its result.

 

[MingoMongo]

Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
Version: 6.1.7601.24499

Image Version: 6.1.7601.24499

Service Pack Cleanup can't proceed: No service pack backup files were found.
The operation completed successfully.

I'd re-try the upgrade.

It could be it will work, or it could be not.
I've seen 3 problematic KBs packages in the CBS logs.
But I'm just guessing given that I wasn't trained to check it.

 

[MingoMongo]

Nope didn't work.
Panther folder.

 

[xilolee]

Launch:

wmic datafile where name="C:\\Windows\\System32\\wuaueng.dll" get Version /value

I hope it says 7.6.7600.256

 

[MingoMongo]

Version=7.6.7601.24542

 

[xilolee]

Firewall enabled?
If yes, re-try without it.

 

[MingoMongo]

Didn't work, I did accidentally leave my focusrite in though, though I struggle to believe that is the issue at this point.

 

[xilolee]

So do I... Just curious how the logs changed: could you upload the panther folder?

 

[MingoMongo]

Yeah here it is

 

[xilolee]

They almost didn't change.


Let's try this:

• Let's run cleanmgr:

  cleanmgr /sagerun:1

  
  
• Uninstall KB2515325, KB3069762 and KB4019990.
  I found them in cbs logs.
  In the sysnativefilecollectionapp logs I found only KB4019990.
  Therefore you'll probably get error for the first two commands:

  wusa /uninstall /KB:KB2515325
  wusa /uninstall /KB:KB3069762
  wusa /uninstall /KB:KB4019990

  Let me know the results.
  
  
• Then check for Windows Updates and, if you should see those two updates (they shouldn't appear because it seems they are for windows 7 without service pack), right-click on them and select hide.
  
  
• If all went well, reboot and re-try the upgrade.

 

[MingoMongo]

Yeah only KB4019990 was uninstalled, the other two couldn't be found
Checking Windows Update, KB4041083, KB4049016, and KB4535102 have popped up so I'll install those and try upgrading tomorrow.

 

[xilolee]

They're all for W7 sp1, therefore

 

[MingoMongo]

Nah didn't work.
Maybe this is from the disk clean (though it hasn't done it before) but my C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\ and C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\ used to be filled with a lot of stuff, now it's just C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\Panther with Panther in blue which I'm not sure it was before. This may not matter at all but I do like how clean it is!

I've send my CBS folder over just in case, the main CBS log file wouldn't let me zip it because it was in use, so I copied all the text onto "Fake CBS.txt"

Panther
CBS folder

 

[xilolee]

It seems like the logs were interrupted by something:

FindAbruptDownlevelFailure - 55882B1A-DA3E-408A-9076-23B22A0472BD
Error: SetupDiag reports abrupt down-level failure.
Last Operation: Finalize
Error: 0x800704C7 - 0x40005

 

[MingoMongo]

Oh maybe I just restarted too quickly when it blue screened the second time. Damn, should I run it again to try and get logs?

 

[xilolee]

Let's try to uninstall malwarebytes altogether and stop windows 7 defender (open defender, Tools - Administrator, untick Use this program and click Apply).
Reboot, launch windows update, re-try the upgrade.

 

[MingoMongo]

noope, didn't work.

Panther. Folders in $WINDOWS.~BT and $WINDOWS.~BT/Sources are back to how they were before.

 

[xilolee]

Sfc, surt and then cbs folder. :)
